Another potential Bowl for CUSA??? - MUHERD76 - 04-01-2015 03:29 PM
Just caught wind that CUSA is in talks about yet another bowl affiliation. This time in Texas. Supposedly in the Austin/San Antonio area. Any of you UTSA fans hearing anything down there? I had heard CUSA had been working toward an "eastern" based bowl affiliation so this must be something different.

Austin was supposed to file today. AAC-CUSA at DRK.

Even 25-30K would look like a tiny crowd in that stadium.

We had 30K+ in the Cotton Bowl last year and it was a drop in the bucket. Still a great time. I would love to play a game in DKR without having to deal with tea sippers. Playing in Austin would be awesome!!

If new bowls approved, AAC will have 9 bowls for 12 teams, highest % of bowls for any conference

If 4 new bowls approved, 66% of 127 FBS teams will go bowling this season
Brett McMurphy @McMurphyESPN · 12m12 minutes ago
Austin, Little Rock, Tucson & Orlando applied for new bowls, sources told @ESPN. If approved, 43 bowls this year

So it appears to be two more for CUSA this year? Tucson against MWC and in Austin against the American.

That will be 9 bowls for the AAC and 8 for C-USA. Wow.

I like it!! We would have a shot to play UH, SMU, Tulane or another western school in TX!

Good for the western schools but still waiting on that rumored eastern bowl. Im hoping its in Charlotte.

Bowls seem a little lopsided at this point, but you do have two in FLA and one in the Bahamas.
Re: Another potential Bowl for CUSA??? - MUHERD76 - 04-01-2015 04:15 PM
Is it me or is the American lining up to play to many crappy Sunbelts teams? In Orlando? Seriously? That makes no sense at all. Especially considering the Sunbelt doesnt have any schools in Florida anymore. Weird if you ask me. The last thing I would want to do is play a Sunbelt team.
